Pakistan and China will take part in an anti-terrorism meeting here next week under the aegis of the Shanghai Co-operation Organisation (SCO). Despite tension between the two countries, an Indian delegation had also participated in a similar meeting in Pakistan last year.
The upcoming meeting scheduled from May 16 to 19 will see a Pakistan delegation coming to India for the first time after Prime Minister Shehbaz Sharif took over last month. Pakistan also appointed a Minister (Trade) at its High Commission here recently after a gap of more than three years thereby signaling some positive movement in ties between the two countries. Leaders and officials of India and China have also participated in the SCO meets even as stand-offs persist at LAC for last two years.
